Yorkshire Wedding Venues
Over the years I’ve shot at many Yorkshire wedding venues and I have to say we are spoilt for choice. From barns to stately homes to boutique hotels, Yorkshire has an abundance of beautiful wedding venues. Here’s just a few of the following venues who are kind enough to recommend me;
Choosing Your Wedding Venue
When is comes to choosing your wedding venue there’s so many varying factors to take into account. There’s the location, do they have accommodation, is it in your budget, do they have availability and much more…
Once you’ve narrowed down your search to really get the best our of your wedding photos have a think about these photography elements:
- What’s the lighting like, mainly natural or artificial? This can affect the outcome of your photos depending on what style you like.
- Do they have a pleasant outdoor space for photos?
- Is there a pleasant indoor space for photos?
- If (heavens forbid) it rains all day do they have a large enough space inside for a big group photo
- Are there any access limitations to where you might like your photos to be taken
I really hope this helps with your venue choice. If you’d like to see a wedding I’ve shot at your chosen wedding venue then please ask. I’ll be happy to share what I can.
If, after all this, you’re still struggling to finalise your choice please feel free to get in touch. I’m often asked what’s my ‘professional’ opinion on different venues from a photographer’s point of view. I’m fair and non-bias, I solely work for myself and have no monetary connections with any venues.
